Compare 2/6 and 5/8 using benchmark number. Which number can you use to compare these fraction

Mathematics
1 answer:
ch4aika [34]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

5/8 is about 1/2. 2/6 is about 0.

Step-by-step explanation:  2/6 is about 0 because 2 is close to 0. If the numerator is  close to 0 and the denominator is not close to 0 then the benchmark is going to be 0. If the numerator is about half of the denominator then the benchmark is going to be 1/2. If the numerator and denominator is close to each other than the benchmark is going to be 1.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (3,-1) and (8, 9)?
Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

4) y = 2x - 7

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to find the slope by using the following formula....

let (3, - 1) be (x_{1}, y_{1} ), let (8, 9) be (x_{2} ,y_{2} ), and m be the slope, then....

m = \frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} - x_{1} } = \frac{9 + 1}{8 - 3} = \frac{10}{5} = 2

Now that we know the slope we can find the equation of the function by using point-slope for of the function which look like this.....

y -y_{1} = m(x - x_{1} )\\y + 1 = 2(x - 3)\\y + 1 = 2x - 6\\y = 2x - 7

Someone do these please!
stepladder [879]

Answer:

I think the first option is better.

Step-by-step explanation:

First : 5.75% of $5000 is 287.5. 287.5 * 24 = 6900

And 6.55 of $5000 is 325. 325 * 36 = 117000

If she takes the first option it would be better because it is nearer to what she can afford. It is also better because it helps her make more than 5000 in less time.

HOPE THIS HELPED.

IF IT DOESN'T PLEASE COMMENT.
